Художник Чарльз Бритон нарисовал эту серию картинок под названием «Потерянные звенья» в 1873 году после очередного праздника Марди Гра, проходившего в Новом Орлеане. Этот ежегодный карнавал всегда привлекал любителей безумных костюмов, но в тот год, очевидно, многие превзошли сами себя.
Наверняка эти сатирические акварели немного приукрашивают наряды веселившихся на том Марди Гра, но кто знает — раньше люди были помощнее, могли и не в такое одеться.
